“Maria was fantastic! Very communicative with updates about our kitties and included lots of pictures. She was very professional and was best friends with our more timid cat by the end of the week. Highly recommend!”

About: I'm a recent graduate from IU Bloomington who studied Animal Behavior, with several years of experience caring for animals, especially cats. I spent two years working in an animal shelter, helping with daily care, low-stress interactions, and making pets feel comfortable around new people and routines. I also have clinical experience caring for a high volume of cats, including shy, sensitive, or easily stressed cats who need a calm and patient approach. I’m very comfortable reading cat body language and adjusting my care to what each individual cat needs. Over the years, I’ve pet sat for many families and individual pet owners, and I genuinely love getting to know each pet’s personality and routine. I’m the type of sitter who wants your pet to feel comfortable and cared for, and I always send clear updates and photos so you feel completely at ease while you’re gone. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine. My current availability is: Monday: fully free Tuesday: fully free Wednesday: fully free Thursday: fully free Friday: fully free Saturday: fully free Sunday: fully free I’m very careful about safety and trust, especially with cats who can be cautious with new people. I follow their routine closely, move at their pace, and never push interaction if they’re not feeling it. I’m careful about doors and any escape risks when entering or leaving. I pay close attention to body language and the small things that can signal stress or discomfort, and I’ll always reach out right away if anything seems unusual. I send clear photo updates each visit so you always know how things are going while you’re away.
About: I’m observant, communicative and respectful. I notice changes within behavior and will send check in photos so you know your pet is in good hands. I’ve been taking care of pets for some time now. If not my own I take care of my families pets. My first time I ever got a pet and experienced real care is when I was 13, I made sure it was bathe, walked and ate. I’d always just talk to them too about random things but it was wholesome and let me not forget play with them with all the different toys I got for them. Needless to say I’ve been taking care of my dog for 3 years and I promise you when I say I pay close attention I do! I’d love your pets like my very own and take them to enjoy new experiences while also being safe. I’m not a rookie to this. I’m very experienced. Weekdays: Available after 3 PM Weekends: Available anytime before 9 PM I'm also happy to work with your schedule and can be flexible if you need something outside those windows. Your trust is the most important thing, and I treat your pet and your home with the same care & respect I'd want for my own.

About: I grew up caring for our family pets (cat, dog, fish, and gerbil)! When I was in high school, I had my first pet sitting experience while traveling to my uncle's house in the evenings to check in on his dog. I would always stay for at least 20-30 minutes to make sure that she ate some food, drank water, went potty, and had play time with me. Although I currently only have cats, I'm also a dog lover and I'm happy to care for both. I enjoy going for walks and I'm not afraid to give some good pets and rubs and have pet hair all over my clothes. I'm looking forward to making new animal friends! ♥ I'm currently working remotely full-time, so I'm available any day of the week morning/afternoon/evening/overnight as long as I can access the Internet! I can certainly take as many breaks as needed for potty breaks, feeding, playing, etc. I cannot offer care in my own home, but I'm able to travel to your home to provide pet care services. My schedule is flexible!
About: Hello! My name is Erin and I'm excited to offer exceptional pet sitting services. What sets me apart from other sitters is my unique combination of skills and experience: As a nurse, I have a deep understanding of health and wellness, and I bring this expertise to caring for your pets. I am attentive, compassionate, and skilled at handling any health-related concerns that may arise. My own dog is currently in training to be a therapy dog, which speaks to my commitment and capability in training and managing pets. This experience has equipped me with advanced techniques to ensure your pets are well-behaved and happy. Personally training my dog has given me practical insights into pet behavior, discipline, and the importance of positive reinforcement. I bring this hands-on knowledge to every pet I care for, ensuring a loving and nurturing environment. By choosing me as your pet sitter, you can rest assured that your furry family members will receive the highest level of care, attention, and affection. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! Caring for my own pup is part of my daily routine! Your pup will be part of the family when they are with us. I can cater to their needs. In my home surrounded by woods and with a backyard that extends into a spacious field, I provide a safe and enriching environment for pets in my care. Whether it's in my home or yours, safety, trust, and comfort are my top priorities. I ensure a secure setting, free from hazards, where pets can roam and explore freely under supervision. With my dog as a companion, who enjoys the expansive outdoor space with me, we offer a dynamic and stimulating atmosphere for pets. Regular long leash walks are part of our routine, tailored to each pet's needs, ensuring they receive ample exercise and mental stimulation. You can trust that your pets will receive attentive care, plenty of outdoor time, and a loving environment that feels just like home.
About: I’ve had pets my entire life and currently care for two cats and a 13-year-old black lab, so I understand the different needs pets have at every stage of life. Caring for a senior dog has given me experience with daily medications, supplements, patience, and maintaining consistent routines to keep pets comfortable and happy. I also have experience pet sitting for friends and family, and I always treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m dependable, attentive, and focused on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I recently graduated from PA school and have a flexible summer schedule while preparing for my certification exam and pending licensure. This gives me plenty of availability to dedicate time and attention to pet care throughout the day. I’m reliable, organized, and able to accommodate a variety of routines, whether that includes walks, drop-ins, feedings, or simply keeping pets company and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all instructions closely, make sure pets are fed, walked, and cared for on schedule, and give them plenty of attention and comfort while you’re away. I also keep the space clean and make sure everything is secure so you can feel at ease knowing your pets and home are in good hands.
About: I grew up around a lot of big dogs so I think i have a better time reading the dog and knowing what it needs and when. I am currently self employed so i can fit in my walks into my schedule how I like. That way if you need to change the time i can be very flexible. You can ensure my attention will be on your pet 100% of the time when you book with me and will get lots of play time.
About: I have taken care of animals all my life, from cats to dogs. I have helped take care of my dogs at home by feeding them, bathing them, cleaning up after them, and administering their medicine. I am a graduate student here and hope to help out on weekends. My schedule can be busy, but I am willing to work around my schedule to best suit you and your pet! I would ensure that it is a safe environment, where dangers such as glass shattering or heavy objects are moved to safe places. I also want to ensure they feel comfortable, so taking the time for the animal to get to know me is important.
“Kaitlyn helped me to take care of my kitty during the holiday season. One of the hardest seasons to find a sitter. Yet, she accepted my request. Not only that. She even helped me out to check on my kitty during the winter storm while I was stuck in Dallas. Overall great availability. She takes pet sitting seriously. Ensuring that your pet will eat its meals, as well as ensuring to play with your pet.”
“Abigail was amazingly communicative and I definitely appreciated the company she gave to our girl, Victory! I also enjoyed seeing the pictures from their walks and drop ins, they gave me assurance that she was happy and well taken care of!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Fayette
Maria was an absolute joy to have as a cat sitter for our boy, Sprout! We highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for their pets while they’re away. She took such great care of Sprout, sent us the sweetest pictures, and kept us completely at ease during our trip. It meant so much knowing Sprout was in such loving and capable hands. We’ll definitely be reaching out to Maria again! 🐾❤️
Stefanie was amazing!! One of my cats usually eats a daily crushed steroid in wet food with no problems, but he got ornery while we were away this time. She went above and beyond with her time and efforts to take care of my furry boy and get him to eat his meds. Thank you so much, Stefanie!!! 😻❤️👏
Stefanie is incredible! We were on vacation for 10 days and we have 4 cats! Not only did she take such wonderful, loving care of our furbabies but she did an excellent job watching over the house. She took out the trash without even being asked! She also noticed some ants on the kitchen counter and she cleaned off the honey she thought they were after and put a trap down for us. She brought in all the mail and packages and did everything we asked her to do. I would highly recommend Stefanie! 😊

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
